SOLE Platinum Sandal, Sport Flip £49.00
Colours: Black, Brown/Blue, Green/White and Blue/Grey
More info: www.yoursole.co.uk
We all know that flip flops don’t always offer the best support for your feet. But SOLE is attempting to redress that with their wear mouldable, orthopaedic flip-flops. The unique, patent-pending anatomical design supports, cradles, and cushions your feet allowing you to wear them all day without any pain or fatigue. You do need to wear this style in though as they mould to your own foot shape so bare this in mind when you first get them.
Keen Waimea H2 £34.99

Environmentally aware brand Keen has created another great style that is ideal for going in and out of water. The Waimea H2 is made with a rice paper upper and is woven in a way that makes every pair of sandals unique. The lightweight outsole provides the right amount of support and traction control while the polyester webbing straps are quick drying.
